# Pricing

Cloudback uses a **per-workspace pricing model** for Linear. The unit cost is based on the number of projects in your workspace.

## How Units Work for Linear

Each Linear workspace with backups enabled consumes **2 units per project** in the workspace, with a minimum of 2 units. If you back up multiple workspaces, units add up across all of them.

| What You Protect                          | Units Consumed |
| ----------------------------------------- | -------------- |
| 1 workspace with 1 project                | 2 units        |
| 1 workspace with 5 projects               | 10 units       |
| 2 workspaces with 5 projects each         | 20 units       |
| 3 workspaces with 10, 15, and 25 projects | 100 units      |

The unit count is **recalculated automatically** as projects are added or removed from any workspace. Units are shared across all connected accounts and platforms.

### Free Plan Exception

The free plan provides 1 free backup slot per connected account. For Linear, this means one workspace can use the free slot regardless of how many projects it contains - the normal unit count is bypassed.
